Ok, I'm officially back. I kicked off the return to normalcy yesterday morning at the Playtri Masters swim with two of my athletes (grown ones), and 900 yards of PULLING! Pulling is my absolute least favorite thing to do in the pool, so naturally half of our main set consisted of it. I didn't even bring a pull buoy. But they found one for me to borrow... dang it. The hour looked something like this:
500m swim/kick warm up
3 x 100m pull on 2:00
3 x 100m pull on 1:50
3 x 100m pull on 1:45 (ICK)
100m easy
4 x 75m (25m water polo swim/50m mod) on 2:15
100m easy
8 x 50m (fast/easy/fast/fast/easy/fast/fast/fast) on 1:00
COOL DOWN
After a week and a half of no swimming, it was actually a little bit of a kick in a butt, but also a lot of fun to be kicking it (no pun intended) with my Playtri friends! I'm already signed up for February. Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday!
The rest of the day was consumed with work, and then today I had another easy day with just an hour of Training Pace on the bike. Did it on the trainer at work, and wrapped it up when a client called to talk training and bikes. Then - Start for recovery fuel (it's my new favorite restaurant - check it out: www.startrestaurant.net)
I love my job.
Tonight is our Team Playtri Elite 2013 race season parents meeting, and I can't wait to get all our athletes registered for the amazing schedule we have set up for them. It is going to be a stellar year for these guys and girls in 2013!
Happy Friday everybody!
